Prospect Management, The Way the Big Boys Triple Their Income Contributed by:
Bob MartinTuesday, December 17, 2002 (10 years 150 days ago)
With a donor database of approximately 40,000 alumni and friends, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga recognizes that it is impossible to personally cultivate each of those potential donors, on any regular basis, in any timeframe.
So, to ensure ongoing effective contact with our major gifts prospects, our development office, including close to 50 professional development directors, and many more support personnel, uses our own version of the moves management process. (For smaller annual gifts we rely on direct mail and phonathons.)
CharityChannel's WE REVIEW
CharityChannel members who have been admitted to the WE REVIEW Contributors Panel are eligible to receive recently-published books from a variety of publishers (and some self-publishers) to review. Reviews are not limited to books published by CharityChannel Press, the publishing project of the CharityChannel professional community. If you are interested in reviewing books, you are welcome to apply. Note that, even though WE REVIEW has been publishing reviews for over a decade, it has recently been reorganized and re-launched. We took the opportunity to remove prior reviews, since our focus is on newly published books.
